'''Muhammad''' is a religious prophet who is a member of the [[Super Best Friends (Group)|Super Best Friends]]. He can fly and possesses the power of pyrokinesis. Sometime after the events of ''Super Best Friends'', Muhammad developed the super power of not being able to be made fun of, using some kind of goo according to [[Rob Reiner]]. Despite this ability, [[Family Guy]] was able to air an episode showing the uncensored image of Muhammad, although the show's manatee writers forced the Fox network to show the image. However he wasn't made fun of, as the people who watched it stated he was just being like everyone else. In Comedy Central's South Park, they will not show Muhammad. Although they mentioned on the South Park episode "Cartoon Wars" that they could not show an image of Muhammad; this is NOT entirely true. In one other South Park episode Muhammad is not censored at all. Also, if you check in the intro videos of each South Park seasons from 7 onward, I'm 99.999 percent positive that you will see Muhammad in the picture of all the town characters by the South Park sign. His location is very difficult to see because, (he is far back on the right side of the sign in a cluster).

Muhammad is a religious prophet who is a member of the Super Best Friends. He can fly and possesses the power of pyrokinesis. Sometime after the events of Super Best Friends, Muhammad developed the super power of not being able to be made fun of, using some kind of goo according to Rob Reiner. Despite this ability, Family Guy was able to air an episode showing the uncensored image of Muhammad, although the show's manatee writers forced the Fox network to show the image. However he wasn't made fun of, as the people who watched it stated he was just being like everyone else. Comedy Central refuse to show Muhammad on South Park. Although they mentioned on the South Park episode "Cartoon Wars" that they could not show an image of Muhammad, he was visible in Super Best Friends. He is also visible in the intro in Season Seven onwards.

As a result of the episode "200", Trey Parker and Matt Stone have been threatened by a radical Islamic website Revolutionmuslim.com. for including an image of the Prophet Muhammad in disguise.[1]

Quotes

Trey Parker:
I was on my honeymoon in Disney World. I turned on the television, and there were thousands of rioting Muslims, and the caption said, “Muslims enraged over cartoon which led to a 9-11 terrorist attack.” And I said, “Oh, shit. What did we do?”
We actually did an episode five years ago with Muhammad in it. It was an episode called “Super Best Friends,” and Muhammad had super powers and turned himself into a beaver and then killed Abraham Lincoln. I thought, “They finally just saw it, and they're all pissed off.” But no, it was those other cartoons that they were mad about.
So Matt and I were like, “This is great; we have our first episode.” Comedy Central kept saying, “We’re not going to broadcast a Muhammad episode.” And we said, “You totally have the right, it's your network, but we're going to make one, and it's going to be one of the seven you pay for.”[1]
